Posters for a new season

I'm pleased to announce the beginning of cooperation with The Yugoslav Drama Theater in Belgrade, Serbia. I will be designing their posters for the season 2017/2018.

The first poster is for the play Einstein's Dreams by Alan Lightman, directed by Slobodan Unkovski, which will be premiered on October 15th.

The play fictionalizes Albert Einstein as a young scientist who is troubled by dreams as he works on his theory of relativity in 1905, and each dream involves a conception of time.

The second poster is for the play Mercy Seat by Neil LaBute directed by Jana Maričić, whose premiere is scheduled for November.

It's a 2002 play that was among the first major theatrical responses to the September 11, 2001 attacks. Set on September 12, it concerns Ben, a man who worked at the World Trade Center but was away from the office during the attack, with his mistress, Abby, who is also his boss. Expecting that his family believes that he was killed in the towers' collapse, Ben contemplates using the tragedy to run away and start a new life with his lover.
